Hello Fall River Fox Families,

I am very excited to share that the Fall River staff is teaming up with PTO to launch our first ever summer-support-community-picnic-celebration-extravaganza-party! We’re calling it “Unplugged Summer.” 

Unplugged Summer is a whole family event in which we will have all sorts of activities, games, and resources to help all of our Fox families learn some great ways to keep the kids engaged in active summer fun. Along with a whole lot of exciting learning experiences, we’ll also have vendors and six different food trucks. Unplugged Summer will be on Friday, May 2nd. Our learning activities and games will be from 4:00-5:30. Food trucks will begin serving between 4:00 and 4:30 and end at 6:30, so families can stick around and enjoy a picnic on the playground. We’ll even have this year’s yearbooks ready to go, and have opportunities to have yearbook signings during the picnic! 

We hope to see all of you there!

Onward and upward!

Quinn O’Keefe
Fall River Principal
